Automatic HeadLight Control

My mom bought a 2003 Max cause I'm her role model, lol. Nah, jk but anyone I like the automatic head light control. What do you people think about this find. It's supposed to control your entire light system, turn off when you shut your car down. Also turn on when it gets dark out if you have the switch on.

a 30 min install obviously is not plug and play. And its a 30 minute install depending on the vehicle. Heck for all i know..it can take up to 3 hours for the install!!! it seems like you're going to have to splice into either the headlight controls or the ecu. Either way, i'd rather just turn the headlights off myself. But then again, it might be easier than i think. I'm sure someone else has thought of this and will chime in soon.

At least the chances of it getting you killed are less... LOL

It isn't too expensive, give it a try and let us know how it goes...

+1 on trying it and reporting back... at least let us know prices.

The only thing i've actually contemplated doing was wiring up some relays to control headlights w/the ignition on only.
